I have mixed emotions about this place. I walk past it EVERY day on the way to work and I eyeball…read morethe items in the windows. If it's cute...I make a mental note....if I gasp...I'll walk in and usually will not purchase because they won't have my size. grr. I have to get a dress in a size large in everything so it won't look like a micro mini on my long legs. And Larges tend to fly off the shelves. Lets face it....I'm not 20 anymore and I shouldn't be in a micro anything. I'm all woman..hear me roar. I think this location is a little bit "hipper" than the other location that is in the South Park area next to WS. That location has some of the same pieces but I've been in there and the items would def appeal to the older crowd (40's) and then made mid 20s. Today..... Uptown location made me proud. I had my eye on a Chevron Black and White LONG maxi skirt that was at another boutique in dilworth. I called them and they sold out in about a week. *tears* of sadness. Oh WAIT...I thought to myself...I think Ivy & Leo had the same skirt....I'll check on Monday. Walked in today with a coworker and I couldn't find it on the rack. *tears of sadness* I browse the sale rack as I morn in silence. My coworker said "is this it". A light from heaven shown down with all it's glory as she held up my beloved chevron black and white maxi skirt. "YES" and I snatched it. Thank the good Lord it was a large. I would have probably bought it anyway if it were a small and squeezed my thick'um thighs in it. (Don't judge...you know you've done that before). Here's where I get irritated. I'm happy and I asked the sales girl to hold it for me as I need to go back and get my wallet. I could have sworn she rolled her eyes in her head and I politely said that I would be back...no need to worry. She just grabbed it and said "Name?" wow....someone's got the Monday blues. So I went back and the OTHER nicer girl helped me. Anyway..that's my story. Check it out. It's a trendy little place and dangerous for me as it's on my way to work....blah. I have a shopping problem.

This is a boutique in Southpark that I've visited a dozen times over the years...mostly because I…read morelove their selection of jewelry. More than any other boutique, Boem seems to have the most variety of big, bold necklaces...exotic tribal styles, statement pieces, etc.etc. You're sure to find something cute (in apparel or accessories) during your excursion here. I found some of their clothing way overpriced...a ballpark of $200 for some of their tops (even T-Shirts!), for instance. Jewelry isn't cheap either, but relatively cheaper? This is a fairly big store, with a long layout, but they have SO much stuff, it's a bit packed in...and hard to manueuver around, but only if the store is fairly crowded. They do have HUGE, private, walk-in closets though (only 3?)...so plenty of privacy. One other thing I didn't like was that on my last visit, they were playing Country-Western music...which I didn't think fit the look and style of the store at all (unless maybe it's moving in that direction?). Before that, they always played cool, more metro type music. So guess I don't love EVERYTHING about this boutique...but no matter, this is a fun, eclectic boutique...with lots of relaxed, Bohemian styles (very Californian?), which I tend to wear often. Also, like I mentioned, a great selection of chunky necklaces!

Not to be confused with the Creepycentre, which is only open on Halloween…read more It's pretty Epic at the Epic-centre. I love coming here, and do so every single time I'm in Charlotte on a weekend night, which is often lately. Very appropriately named because this really is the epicenter of Charlotte. It's lively and fun and modern and futuristic and pretty amazing. The whole multi-level palace is filled with hot people and scandalously dressed people, especially on warm nights. I made some nice friends around here (of both genders, for a change). It is the heartbeat of downtown Charlotte and a very non-traditional party area. Sort of like a party area of the future. If a mall had an older, drinking crowd and was outdoors and full of clubwear then this would be it. For this reason we love walking around here, even though parking is extremely difficult here on Friday and Saturday nights, so be careful. We've actually parked illegally and gotten away with it on several occasions, but I wouldn't recommend that to others. Lots of cops around here so don't do anything stupid. The design means that if somebody crazy decided to commit suicide, or if there was a fist fight, then it would be very easy from the higher levels to plunge down a long, long way, and there's a lot of people wandering in the courtyard below, so that worries me a tiny bit, and what about the very very drunk people leaning against the railings with a 100 foot drop down onto concrete asphalt right below them. It does worry me slightly but it's still an absolutely wonderful place.

I recently visited this Nordstrom Rack location after moving to Charlotte, and overall, it was a…read moresolid experience. Nordstrom Rack has always been one of my favorite places to shop. I used to work at a full line Nordstrom years ago, so I know quality when I see it. That's why I love the Rack because you can always expect good brands at better prices than you'd find at the full line store. To some people, Nordstrom Rack still feels a little pricey for a discount store, but you really have to compare it to the original full line price tags. I live in the NoDa area, and I will say this location was a bit farther out than I expected, about 25 minutes from my house. I was honestly surprised that there isn't a Nordstrom Rack closer to the city. This one is more on the outskirts, which is fine, but it does make quick trips or exchanges a little less convenient. Yes, you can return items at the full line Nordstrom, but sometimes you just want to browse and see what's new. Parking here was easy, and the store itself was clean and well organized. Coming from Houston and then Florida, I wasn't used to seeing so many coats in stock, so that actually caught my attention. They had a big winter selection, and I ended up leaving with a super cute trench coat, a puffer jacket, and a couple of other cold weather pieces since I know Charlotte winters are going to be colder. The staff was about as friendly as you'd expect at a Nordstrom Rack, but they moved quickly, and the checkout line wasn't long. Overall, this location was consistent with the other Nordstrom Racks I've been to. No surprises, just the usual dependable Rack experience. I'd definitely return.

The store was very well stocked and clean. You didn't see much on the ground from items knocked down. The items I found were priced very well. No complaints.

She asked me about opening a store credit card and I told her no thank you. Her demeanor changed, lol! I mean I'm sorry that I don't shop here often enough but also store credit cards are too limiting! But anywho...nice experience here and I would return.

SPLURGE!!! I even love the name!…read more Yesterday I had the delightful pleasure of stopping in and spending some time discovering a boutique in the Myers Park section of Charlotte with a friend who was visiting. Let's just say that if I ever need to start 100% over with clothing...this will be a key stop for my wardrobe rebuild. I'm going to say it out loud...it might be the replacement for me with Ralph Lauren...this was truly an amazing shop with inspired owners who know how to dress tall women. The new LA trifecta may be St. John, Lilly and Splurge! I feel a little dirty for cheating on Ralph! I can't really speak for what they can do for those who are vertically challenged...but man alive, I could have bought 100 things there and been quite happy! Many of the brands they carry, including their phenomenal leather goods from GiGi New York, are sourced and made IN THE USA!!! I bought 11 items and all but one were made in one of our 50 states and I tell you, I just feel better not buying things made in China and being able to buy US goods is an extra WIN in my opinion! Luxurious fabrics-body conscious or flowing fit-and a wonderful mix of both neutrals and color POP pieces......yes, please!! They carry staples, special pieces, lingerie, accessories, lovely jewelry and it's clear they are more curator than buyer. The collections featured as they welcome the autumnal pieces in are clearly thoughtfully considered and edited by women who know not only fashion but what is going to work well with things you've worn for years and new pieces in fresh silhouettes. They are special without being odd. Unique without going on that couture side that is both price prohibitive and typically something you'd not want to be seen wearing in Charlotte. Or beyond a svelte size 2. Reasonably priced, I did not see anything that took my breath away from a tag perspective, just from a DANG THIS LOOKS FABU point of view. This is a boutique where it's not about sales, it is about service. I felt more as if they were facilitating my ability to round out my wardrobe than looking to hit a dollar goal in their cash register. The zest and passion for quality is evident from the moment you walk in the door. I love to support locally owned boutiques, US made items and wear beautifully made clothing. This is a new favorite stop for me, hope it will be for you, too!!

Martini, with a small lot in front of the boutique. You shouldn't have too much trouble finding parking. The shop offers a beautiful selection of upscale designer clothing from Gucci, Saint Laurent, Sacai, and others. Everything was arranged by colors. Clothes are toward the front with accessories in the center and back, shoes in the far right corner. Staff were gracious and friendly. They left me alone to shop on my own, but they were there to answer questions and help in any way. I visited during the summer when some items were on sale. I tried on a stunning pleated skirt that was about 40-40% off. Still pricey, but it was fun to try on. I didn't walk out with anything in hand, but I would come back to see what was new.

Their shoe selections were good, my friend and I loved their Givenchy white stilettos with the zipper rim that was $650. If I had the money, yes I would shop here. I give it four stars, because the selections they had were actually nice, the place is clean and spacious, and upstairs (Poole Shop) had contemporary clothing, jewelry, candles/lotions, and sale selections that we ended up getting (green tank $19 and organic light beige for $49)! Clothing for the win!
